duck tales

like i said...i have nothing to do at work. to end the day, my co-workers and i debated about how huey, dewey, and luey were related to scrooge mcduck and donald duck. it was quite heated. i thought donald was their dad, and i figured scrooge and donald were brothers. there's no question huey, dewey, and luey called scrooge "uncle scrooge".

i was wrong.

we googled it and found a priceless site that answered all of our various questions. check out the duck tales family tree. it turns out, donald was huey, dewey, and leuy's uncle, as he's the brother of della duck, their mother. donald's mother was hortense mcduck, scrooge's sister. so scrooge is huey, dewey, and leuy's great uncle.

i don't know what's more sad, the fact that we would debate this at work, or the fact that somebody went through the trouble of compiling an actual family tree.

no, the family tree is definitely more sad.
